THREAD As a former journalist, I get drawn into arguments about why the media is always so “negative.” Yes, the news is often bad but there is a good reason for this. I wrote this thread to reveal how media works and for easy sharing in future. Feel free to do the same. /2

@CNviolations Well, I remember how they piled on Tim Walz's son during the Dem convention, and how MAGA are so quick to blurt out "are you retard*d" so maybe y'all are living in glass houses.

@realryanrand Canada does. It’s obvious.

@realryanrand @deAdder @cc604 Do a quick Google search. It will take decades and many billions of investment to displace steel imports, and you can’t displace aluminum at all. You don’t have the resources. Meanwhile, those tariffs will be paid by Americans. Trump will back down when this sinks in.

@jsrailton @AmoneyResists @citizenlab @billmarczak Can you tell us more about this update also allowing Starlink onto our phones? I don’t want Musk anywhere near my device. Is it safe to download this update? Can I safely disable the Starlink feature?
